Green and Floral Round Tray Makeover

  This round tray has been completely reimagined. Its original shabby chic white finish has been updated to a rich dark green, and a delicate floral rice paper adds a touch of elegance. A final layer of dark wax deepens the colour and accentuates the details, giving it a beautifully aged, vintage feel.

New Faux Tin Tile Pattern and Color Series



Another collection of faux tin tiles in the making. Did you see the previous set in dark shades of grey?


This collection is going to be lighter shades. The dark grey embossing paste was the same though but it is a new tile pattern stencil.


I love the more swirly look of this stencil.  The first full coverage color is Cece Caldwell paint's parchment. See it on a cute corner cabinet here.


Layers of color went on next including House & Canvas angora white, Fusion Mineral Paint's little lamb and FAT paint in robin's egg blue added to two of the 3. (above right)

After all layers dried,  Daddy Vans orange scented clear wax was brushed on to seal all the layers.


A silver glaze was brushed over once the wax dried


Then to make the raised embossing pop, Daddy Vans cafe noir wax (shadow black was added to the grey tile) was brushed on to give detail and dimension.


And here is the latest tiles available on my Etsy page
